Kate Reeve, BACP

Kate Reeve is a BACP counsellor who helps people feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unhappy. She hears worries about anxiety, low mood, grief, trauma and life changes and supports people who struggle with self-esteem, addictions, sleep or career pressures. Kate also helps those managing parenting stress, relationship strain and the challenges that come with ADHD or compassion fatigue.

Her style is warm and person-centred. She works to understand what blocks a person’s talents and then supports practical steps to change. Conversations focus on everyday life, not jargon, and aim to make goals feel achievable.

Kate uses an integrative approach that draws on several evidence-informed methods. She combines client-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural work and acceptance and commitment ideas, among others. This mix lets her match methods to a person’s needs instead of using one fixed model.

She has nine years of practice and experience supporting people through trauma, domestic violence, depression and anxiety. She also has experience working with neurodivergent adults and those affected by adoption, attachment issues, or caregiver stress.

Sessions are conversational and focused on practical coping. Kate aims to help people recognise strengths, try different ways of responding, and build a life that feels more satisfying. Her work is about steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Approaches that inform online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on chosen values and actions. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck when life needs direction.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating that began earlier in life and how they show up now. This can help with relationship strain, abandonment concerns and attachment issues that affect day-to-day connections.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which approaches to use. That collaborative stance means methods can change as needs evolve.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule short check-ins, to meet during a lunch break or to access support when living abroad. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools like ACT and attachment-focused conversations to an online setting, helping people practise coping strategies between meetings and bring real-life situations into sessions.
